Tonight is "Opening Night" for Laguna Beach Little League. Clyde Wright, ex-MLB player, will be throwing out the first pitch at 6pm. Laguna Beach Little League was established in 1952, helped by long time LB resident, Jack Norworth, who wrote "Take Me Out to the Ballgame". Come tonight to our "Field of Dreams", Riddle Field, for a famous Riddle Burger. #lagunabeach #riddlefield #clydewright #littleleague #fieldofdreams #riddleburger #dinnertonight #baseball #jacknorworth #takemeouttotheballgame #crackerjacks #haveahomerunday

"The Gate" located at Forest Ave. and PCH dates back to 1915. An ice cream parlor owner was looking to name his store and held a contest. Whoever could come up with the best idea would win a leather pillow. A little girl told him he should write a poem on his gate. She won the pillow. This landmark is on my free self-guided Heisler Park/Downtown Tour. Go to LagunaBeachWalks.com for the details. #lagunabeach #gate #landmark #history #walkingtour #downtown #poem #travel #walk

You know how sometimes as parents you have to suffer through kids' activities because you know they enjoy it? Like going to the movies and watching Frozen instead of American Sniper? Like listening to Justin Beiber instead of my favorite talk radio show? Well last night was NOT one of those times. Hubby and I took the kids to the Laguna Playhouse for the children's production of "Number the Stars". It was set in Copenhagen in 1943, telling the story of how many families helped save/hide/smuggle the Jews who were being forced to "relocate". Emmalisa Randrup was amazing as the lead character, Ellen. After the production, the director brought on stage a holocaust survivor and he told us his heartbreaking story. His mission for the rest of his life is to end all genocide. One human being should never hurt another human being because they have different views. #lagunabeach #lagunaplayhouse #numberthestars #holocaust #genocide #peace #youththeatre @emmalisa_r @pipernaess @bigjommy12 @molly_cohn

The best place in Laguna Beach to watch surfers is Brooks Street. This spot is also home to the oldest continuous surf contest in the world (1955). Lots of seating and the colorful tiles are compliments of local artist Marlo Bartels. #lagunabeach #brooksstsurfcontest #surfers #surfing #art #artinpublicplaces #brooksstreet #standuppaddlers
